Workhorse Plug 'n Play
I have a 2003 F350, 6.0. I pull a 12K# fifth wheel and would like to gain some torque and power in the normal driving range (1500-2500 RPM). I have avoided applications like Banks, Edge, Superchips, etc due to warranty concerns and not really needing the high end power. I have not installed any guages, but have installed an AirRaid air filter and a Banks 4" turbo back exhaust system.
Has anyone had any experience with a Plug 'n Play module called Workhorse. The web address is www.888luvdiesel.com
They are currently offering a 4 month trial/money back offer that expires tomorrow, March 26 - their normal trial period is 60 days.
Any advice or input would be appreciated.

Mark already knows that Dr. Performance does not make performance modules, Predator does (the company that has the fastest 1/4 mile diesel on the planet). He also knows that Dr. Performance owns Predator. Now, ask yourself? How reliable can someone be who will provide you with FALSE information about a product you are seeking information on and tell you to "run" from it when they are pushing their own stuff.
<O
</OMark endorses products that circumvent your factory fuel delivery system by reprogramming it.
<O
</OFord is going to install a SOE recorder (SEQUENCE OF EVENTS DATA RECORDER) to the ECM to monitor factory system operations; it's just a matter of time if they are not already doing it. Personally it cannot come soon enough for me because I believe there is a line you do not cross.
I hope at that point they hold people like you Mark@DPPI and the tuner god that is so popular here accountable for developing and providing products to consumers that eliminate speed limiters, disable EGR valves and over-fuel factory fuel delivery systems to make un-useable HP. You know the SMOKE thing.
Yeah, I agree run and hide might be a good idea.

It'll give you power and it may very well increase your mpg. However, look up 10k mod on the larger diesel forums, get your simple parts at Radio Shack for about $3.00 (or less). In my opinion, it's a marketing rip-off, nothing more than a glorified resistor gimmick!

You're welcome!
For what it's worth, I don't have an agenda, I am not in the automotive business in any way whatsoever. But I have been reading and posting on the many diesel sites for a few years now. As far as I can tell, and although I have had no business dealings with him as yet, Mark from DPPI has a reputation beyond reproach. I have many times witnessed him send folks to a competing business for no other reason than to help out a customer....sometimes at his own expense.
Good luck!
